The latest to be handed a new deal is Trent Alexander-Arnold who is ready to remain with the Merseyside club for a longer period of time.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is a Liverpool Academy product but has been able to grow into becoming a better player as well as breaking into the first team of manager Jurgen Klopp.

However, Trent Alexander-Arnold has now joined the long list of Andy Robertson, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Joe Gomez and Mohamed Salah who have been offered new deals in the course of the season as a way of committing them to the club.

However, the Liverpool team have been on their toes ensuring they leave nothing to chance in their bid for the league title.

Meanwhile, the Blues boss is ready to take a part of the blame because his side failed to show up completely against the Gunners team.

However, the game between both sides have been reduced to three points which leave the race for a top-four finish very open and more competitive especially with United coming from behind.

Unai Emery’s substitutions must improve

Emery’s substitution has left so much to be desired since the start of the season and Saturday wasn’t exempted.

The Spanish manager surprisingly subbed out lively Alexandre Lacazette for Alex Iwobi in the 67th minute, a decision that didn’t go well with the Gunners fans who voiced their displeasure against the ex-Sevilla manager.

Lacazette scored the first goal of the night and he troubled the Blues defence throughout the day, he deserves to full-time action.

Saturday wasn’t Aubameyang’s day as he was quiet all through the night. The Gabonese ought to have been taken off for Iwobi, not Lacazette.

Irrespective of the Result, Arsenal remain in the fifth position with 44 points but they are now three points behind Chelsea in the race for Champions League spot next season

Man United Close To Making First January Signing

Premier League giants Manchester United are closing in on their first signing in this January transfer window according to various reports emanating from the British media.

The Daily Mail claim that the Red Devils are on the verge of securing the transfer of highly rated young French midfielder Noah Emeran this month and that the player will join the club before the current January transfer window runs out.

Noah Emeran is presently on the payroll of French Ligue 1 club SC Amiens.

Manchester United will pay a compensation fee of around £90,000 for the young Frenchman.

The Saints are in the battle with clubs like Fulham, Huddersfield Town, Newcastle United and Cardiff City.

Inter Milan Target Close To Signing New Man United Contract

Three-time European champions Manchester United have been handed a huge boost following the news that forward Anthony Martial is close to signing a new five-year contract thereby committing his long-term future to the Red Devils.

The new development will definitely be music to the ears of Manchester United fans with French international star Anthony Martial set to stay at Old Trafford for the long haul despite the interest of Italian Serie A giants Inter Milan.

The Italians were keen to sign the former AS Monaco player before Manchester United activated the additional year clause in his current deal with the Red Devils to take his contract at the club to the end of next season (2019/20 season).

Monaco eye loan move for Manchester United’s outcast

Manchester United defensive midfielder Marouane Fellaini is on Monaco’s radar as Henry looks to bring more experienced players into his team this month.

The Frenchman is struggling to lift his team from their current relegation-threatening position and he hopes to get more established players in January so as to avoid being demoted to Ligue 2 by the end of the campaign.

Having completed his move for Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas from Chelsea last week, the former Les Blues striker is now targeting a loan deal for the Belgian star.

Fellaini is tipped to leave Old Trafford this month — despite having a year left in his contract — due to his inability to feature regularly at Old Trafford.

The former Everton midfielder has hardly featured under Solskjaer since the Norwegian returned to the Theater of Dreams, hence, his move away from the team seems unavoidable and imminent.

Manchester United was said to have received offers from numerous clubs from Turkish giants (Fenerbahce) and Dutch powerhouse (Ajax) but none of them have yet revealed their desire to get the experienced star.

During the previous transfer summer market — before the start of the season, Everton were reportedly interested in re-signing the Belgian star but Mourinho prevented the Toffees from reaching an agreement with the United’s hierarchy.

Should Monaco eventually sealed a six-month loan deal for the player, their midfield setup will surely take a new look as it will be occupied by world-class players — such as Cesc Fabregas and Fellaini — who can singlehandedly win many matches
